Game Preview: Miami welcomes Timberwolves to South Beach

The Story:

The Miami Heat welcome the (2-3) Minnesota Timberwolves to South Beach following a close loss to the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday night. The Wolves will most likely be without star point guard Rick Rubio after he suffered an ankle injury Friday night. In the case of his absence Mo Williams will likely start in his place. Miami desperately needs to get back into the zone they were comfortable in the first three games of the season, as a three game slide will deter their confidence.
